It might be more likely that Bernie is hedging his bets since Austin, XT is getting sued for using tax payers money to pay for the event.
The nice thing is the NJ race would be right after the Canadian race in June. If they did hold two races in the US, that would give us both a summer and late fall race. But I'm still not warm and fuzy about either race location. The Texas track is most likely going to be a lot of dust and dirt, but probably easier for getting around, not as large of a metro area with hopefully fewer people and good choices for places to stay. The New Jersey event is well, frickin' Joisey, definitely expensive, not as easy to get around the area, much larger metro area with chances of huge crowds and parking will be a premium.
Loserwife is from that area and has family there. So of course that's her choice of venues.
